Experience

I have been a MAXQDA user since 2013 and have given seminars and conference presentations on MAXQDA. I hold a PhD in mathematics education with a minor in inquiry methodology. I have used MAXQDA for analyzing interviews, group discussions, students’ drawings, and written reflections based on Constructivist Grounded Theory Methodology during my dissertation. I design methodological courses in the field of education. Since I have developed a strong interest in reliability and validity issues in qualitative inquiry (i.e., triangulation), data visualization, and Constructivist Grounded Theory, I am happy to share those in my workshops or to apply as a consulting service for interested research groups.
